Statically linked binary & NSS

Can we improve this situation?  Can we provide an extra static library that
does the static-nss thing instead of making it a build option for libc?
Then someone would do `gcc -static foo.c -lnss_static -lnss_files' or whatever.
The idea is libnss_static.a would contain the static nss code.
(Ideally, they would be able to select which nss modules to use just by
adding the -lnss_foo's to the link; but that is not so important.)
